Denver Post's Coors Field Error: That's a Pic of Phillies' Stadium

The Denver Post ran a guide to Coors Field, the home of the Colorado Rockies, on Friday, but made one glaring error: the photo was of Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia, the home of the Phillies.

.@denverpost, I love you guys... but this seems to be a rather LARGE photo error in your Rockies guide. That stadium.... is Citizens Bank in Philly pic.twitter.com/Oycs87K1P7

The Post ran a correction shortly after the error was brought to its attention.

“Due to a production error, an image of Citizens Bank Park ran in place of Coors Field on the cover of today's Life & Culture section,” the newspaper tweeted. “Please enjoy this beautiful image of Coors Field photographed yesterday. The Denver Post sincerely regrets the error.”

Folks on social media were merciless over the Post’s gaffe. Even the Phillies couldn’t help poking a little fun.

What a lovely photo of Citizens Bank Park.

Right, @denverpost? 😉 https://t.co/CHV1mC4Gr2

Others joined in on the fun, with some posting pictures of other stadiums and attributing them to the wrong cities.

The Post, however, took it all in stride, and its editors even promoted a photo contest at their own expense.
